Concrete evidence that this transfer window is sending some of us over the edge.

I really don't see how the stadium naming rights etc investment is going to have any impact on team spending. We are by most estimates having to fund a 400m development. Surely if someone comes along with 100m it's going to get eaten up pretty quickly and not go near the transfer pot ?

If the stadium is funded, all the money we have taken from transfers in the past 3 years and coming summer can be put towards improving the squad?

Not criticising Akqayid, but most South American players' prices are quoted in $ (and are often not converted when they are quoted in £ or €).

When we bought Sandro there was talk he cost £16m; but it was actually about $16m, which was about £8m.
Acqayid did also say it would be a club record, so that would mean about £18m plus

Right but at least that's £100m the club don't have to find from existing resources in the meantime. See?

Back in the day I remember David and Chunky being the only ITK's worth listening to. Think both have a strong links at board level.

Really? You really don't undestand?

OK, well if we are given the money, we do not need to borrow the money. Banks and financial institutions like to charge something called "interest" when you borrow money. You may have read something about it recently, it's been in the news.

Just a thought...

I realise all ITK and press and whispers point towards AVB or whoever being unveiled this week, but if he/whoever isn't appointed in time, who would take pre-season training...? Do we have any coaches left???
